WHEELER ARMY AIRFIELD, Hawaii - In efforts to provide a clean source of "green" power and control nearly any source of electrical power within an existing grid, Col. Douglas Mulbury, commander, U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii, hosted a formal maile lei untying and demonstration of the Army's first-ever smart-charging micro grid, Friday, outside the garrison headquarters, here.

"This prototype underscores our stated goal to become the Army benchmark for environmental stewardship," Mulbury said.
